Products I Love: Mini Blender

Tuesday started my week long full-liquid diet.  It actually wouldn't be so bad if I weren't so damn hungry.  This means I think it will be totally manageable after surgery when my stomach is just a tiny pouch.

This new diet means lots of protein shakes.  But protein shakes are gross and kind of hard to mix completely. While I was in Wal*Mart last week buying endless supplies of sugar free pudding and cream-of-whatever soup, I spotted this personal blender for $15.  I bought it and, holy cow, I love this thing.

It's the HAMILTON BEACH PERSONAL BLENDER WITH TRAVEL LID.  It has the liquid measurements on the side of the cup, which fits onto a very small base.  You pour the water in, add 1 scoop of chocolate protein powder and hit the one and only button.  Voila!  It whipped my grainy chocolate powder into fluffy submission.

The top has a sliding valve which can be pushed back to reveal a spout. So you can lift the personal sized mixing cup right off the base and head out the door with your protein shake.  When the powder began to settle to the bottom, I simply slid the little cover over the opening and shook it to re-mix. Awesome.

It was also really easy to clean. I rinsed it out with a little dish soap and water and I was ready to go the next morning.  Seriously, this is a $15 very well spent.

But it here on Amazon.com or check your local Wal*Mart.
